http://purl.uniprot.org/citations/9440710http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#comment"Tropomyosin (TM) is an integral component of the thin filament in muscle fibers and is involved in regulating actin-myosin interactions. TM is encoded by a family of four alternatively spliced genes that display highly conserved nucleotide and amino acid sequences. To assess the functional and developmental significance of alpha-TM, the murine alpha-TM gene was disrupted by homologous recombination. Homozygous alpha-TM null mice are embryonic lethal, dying between 8 and 11.5 days post coitum. Mice that are heterozygous for alpha-TM are viable and reproduce normally. Heterozygous knockout mouse hearts show a 50% reduction in cardiac muscle alpha-TM mRNA, with no compensatory increase in transcript levels by striated muscle beta-TM or TM-30 isoforms. Surprisingly, this reduction in alpha-TM mRNA levels in heterozygous mice is not reflected at the protein level, where normal amounts of striated muscle alpha-TM protein are produced and integrated in the myofibril. Quantification of alpha-TM mRNA bound in polysomal fractions reveals that both wild-type and heterozygous knockout animals have similar levels. These data suggest that a change in steady-state level of alpha-TM mRNA does not affect the relative amount of mRNA translated and amount of protein synthesized. Physiological analyses of myocardial and myofilament function show no differences between heterozygous alpha-TM mice and control mice. The present study suggests that translational regulation plays a major role in the control of TM expression."xsd:string
